OK, who else was laughing during the Super Bowl...

[Jetstream Green]

Every time the Seahawks ran in the direction of D"don't tackle"RC... I surely was lol

 

[Duckjake]

The Cardinals have never played in the Super Bowl without DRC at CB.

 

[Finito]

I'd take him in a heart beat

And never won lol

Well, you can only afford one 'elite' corner on your team... I would stick with Peterson any day

 

[Finito]

Didn't say I'd take him over Peterson I don't think I'd take any CB over Peterson considering he's still got plenty of upside

Seven years in the league, and you still want to talk "upside" ?

DRC is what he is.

Finito was talking about Peterson having upside but I think Peterson's upside is already on the mountain top, just play smart and do not have metal lapses and fall off the summit of what he is capable of because he knows what to do. I think the two are close to the same coverage ability excepts DRC suffers from more mental lapses and makes Deon Sanders looked like a tackling machine lol

I've always called him Doesn't Really Care in here, the recent retirement junk goes right along with his tackling desire, he doesn't even care if he's back on the Broncos. But he'll make millions (again), even if he doesn't care.

He'll make millions because he can cover, man to man, any WR in the league and that's what CB's get paid to do. Being a good tackler is a bonus.

 

[Darkside]

All I know is DRC is more productive than Kolb. If we could undo that trade I'm pretty sure everyone would, like him or not. We lost value and ate money.

PP + DRC= one of the top 3 CB tandems in football. Despite his warts DRC= a far above average CB. That trade was so bad...

How true, Deion "Prime time" Sanders was a terrible tackler.

I laughed at this vid. Marshawn Lynch asks his coach if it okay to score more points.

Who did the Eagles end up taking with that pick anyway? ... and more to the point, who was still on the board that the Cards would have likely taken?

What a disaster of a trade.

What a disaster of a trade.

They took OLB Vinny Curry who I think has eaten himself into a DT. He plays but that's about it. When you consider DRC did nothing for them and Curry isn't much of anything, it wasn't all that great a trade from the Philly standpoint either.

The players taken after that pick and were available aren't any of significance:
Kelechi Osemele: he's a starter for Bmore
LaMichael James- Limited impact
Casey Hayward: had a good rookie year but then nothing. NOt sure if he was injured or not, didn't play much.
Reuben Randle: probably not on the Cards radar with Roberts/Fitz/ and they still had Doucet at that point.

next pick was round 3.

I wouldn't call it a disaster. I'd call it a trade that didn't work out for either team.

 

[Phrazbit]

I dont really care how it worked out for the Eagles, but from the Cardinals stand point it was absolutely a disaster. There is no other way to characterize it. Two wasted wasted seasons, a lost pick, a lost asset in DRC, a bunch of salary, a bunch of dead cap on this season.

Then why did you start out by asking "who did the Eagles take anyway" ?

It was a disaster because the Cards gave up a solid cover guy and then over paid millions for a QB who just wasn't any good. Kolb got worse every game he played and then he'd get hurt. Did it in Philly and then repeated the process in Arizona and Buffalo. A typical desperation disaster.

Just like letting Leonard Davis go and passing on Adrian Peterson to draft Leonard Davis.

And a second round pick

Because I was wondering who the Cardinals could have had, thats why I said "and more to the point, who was still on the board that the Cards would have likely taken?"

I was just looking over that draft. There were some real steals to be had in the third round, Russell Wilson, Nick Foles, Kirk Cousins and T.Y. Hilton. Not saying anything about who the Cards should or shouldn't have picked, but those four teams got great values for those picks.

But that happens every single year. Great to very good players taken in later rounds.

Kolb was the best and only option out there so Whiz and RG rolled the dice and they came up craps. If Kolb could have stayed healthy then Whiz would still probably still be our HC. Not saying that's a good or bad thing but Kolb was light years better than Bones, Lindley and the rest of that craptastic group.

Other than Wilson, I think all those guys were there when the Cards picked in round 3 and they went with Jamal Fleming. So, who's to say of they would have pick any of them. I guess they may have looked at QB if they didn't have Kolb, but you never know.

Either way, it turned out to be a nothing trade for both teams and no need re-hash all the could've beens.
